Silkies - New Music "Introducing"

Facebooksilkies.bandcamp.com

I'm not sure if I've ever posted two bands that are basically the same people back-to-back before, after the exquisitely soft Mini Dresses comes Silkies, where the former's day-dreamy pop is replaced by raucous, scuzzy garage rock perfection. Lira Mondal and Caufield Schnug are Silkies (and half of Mini Dresses) and their only track so far, "Like One" has already received praise from a few (primarily UK based) blogs with MFM and CITR both picking up on it early last month...

It's easy to see why, with a fast and unkempt melody "Like One" is unadulterated good time fun, seemingly (and probably) written in half an hour or so, its simple, breathless and effective. I'll try not to get too excited (there's just one Silkies track to go on so far) but fellow fans of fuzzed up, girl pop beware, "Like One" is going to hit you like a thunderbolt and have you running all the way to the nearest dance-floor...
